Although color vision deficiencies are very prevalent, there are no ideal methods for assessing color vision in all environments. We compared a new digital and automated method that quantifies color perception for the three protan, deutan, and tritan axes with two of the most commonly used color tests in daily practice: the Ishihara 38 plates test and the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-Hue test. One hundred patients underwent a triple examination composed of the new DIVE Color Test, the Ishihara test, and the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-Hue test.

Methods: We recruited two cohorts of children, as part of the TrackAI Project, an international project with seven different study sites: a control group of full-term children with normal visual development and a group of children born prematurely. All children underwent a complete ophthalmological exam and an assessment of colour discrimination along the three colour axes: deutan, protan and trytan using a DIVE device with eye tracking technology.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how fixational behavior develops in healthy children aged 5 months and older, using advanced eye-tracking technology to analyze their oculomotor behavior.
- A large sample of 802 children was examined, with results indicating that visual performance, including gaze stability and saccadic reaction time, improves significantly with age, especially in the first two years of life.
- The findings provide valuable normative data for clinical practices, enabling better assessment of visual fixation and saccadic performance in young children.
Background: To quantify development of gaze stability throughout life during short and long fixational tasks using eye tracking technology.
Methods: Two hundred and fifty-nine participants aged between 5 months and 77 years were recruited along the study. All participants underwent a complete ophthalmological assessment.
Key Messages: Visual acuity is the most used method to assess visual function in children. Contrast sensitivity complements the information provided for visual acuity, but it is not commonly used in clinical practice. Digital devices are increasingly used as a method to evaluate visual function, due to multiple advantages.
